If the screen is bespoke to Volvo's sensus system, it is always likely to cost more than a similar screen in something like an iPad which will sell in the millions. Economies of scale and all that. It's why VW Audi have common parts throughout the group - even the Lamborghinis.

That being said I agree £1910+VAT is pretty steep for a basic low(ish)-res screen these days. Maybe there's something else being replaced as part of the process.

Thanks for letting us know though - I've often wondered 'what if' given that I've two young kids who like to get in the front and jab away at the screen at the first opportunity.

Native Google maps/navigation would be welcome and appears to be part of Volvo's plans for future infotainment systems.
